The Transenpt, NEVADA CITY, CALIFORNIA. a= LOCAL INTELLIGENCE, AN EXTENSIvE ENTERPRISE.—The North Bloomfield Gravel Mining Co. is engaged in building a ditch from the South Fork of Poor: Man’s Creek, in Eureka township, to carry water to the miners of Bloomfield township and the ridge. They are increasing the force at work as rapidly as possible, and expect soon to have five hundred Chinamen on the line of the ditch. The company pome time since bought a number of mining claims near North Bloomfield, which they propose to supply with wa-_ ter, and all others who desire. On ‘Tuesday last the Company filed articles ‘of incorporation in the Secretary of ‘State’s office, with capital stock fixed at $800,000, in 8,000 shares of $100 each. The principal place of business will be in San Francisco. . Trustees for the first three months: Lester L. Robinson, 8. ¥.-Butterworth and William E. Barron. ‘The company has abundance of capital and will no doubt do much for the locality in which it is operating, if its affairs are well managed. ’ THE: Kansas Claim —The Kansas claim was purchased a short time since from “Uncle Billy Hazlett” by A. D. Allen of San Francisco. Since Mr. Allen has had control of the claim much has been done towards getting it in good working order.The new incline has been sunk thirty feet and it is supposed _ that they are now within twelve or fifteen feet of pipe clay. Fine hoisting works have been erected and a fifteen ; horse engine will do the hoisting after next Monday. It will mot be necessary to use a pump until after they get through the pipe clay.This mine is on 4n excellent gravel channel and will yield well when opened. STaGE LINE AND 'ToLL Roap For SaLE.—George H. Colby, proprietor of the Nevada and Dutch Flat stage line and owner of the Little’ York and Dutgh Flat.toll road, offers this valuable property for sale. In addition to the stage line and toll road he also has _a good stage stable at You Bet.. The} line is well stocked and runs daily between the two places. ‘ THe EvrEKA CLuB.—The Grant & Colfax Club at Eureka now numbers about eighty, and the Unionmen of South Fork are also talking of organtz— ing, since they’ have a precinct established. They are very enthusiastic throngh@ut Eureka township and will cut down the Democratic majority of . . last year considerably. Judge McFarJand and.Judge Roberts open.the campaign at Graniteville on next Saturday evening, and they will have a good meeting. a A CHEAP Horse.—An enthusiastic Democrat from a neighboring village, who has been reading the WVational and Grass Valley -Union and listening to Dibble’s speeches, came into town yesterday ahd sold his horse to a Union man, ‘whoagreed to pay $180. for the animal when Seymour is elected President. If the seller waits until that time, before purchasing another . horse, he’ll be a Walker to the end of time. Pe > ‘ Rien Srrixe.—A gentleman who came down from Graniteville lately, informs us that a rich ledge was struck there last week, by two prospectors who go by the names of “Happy Jack” and “Tobacco Bill.” The ledge is lo cated half way between Graniteville and South Fork. It is large dnd well defined, and miners think the rock will yield from thirty-five to forty «dollars per ton. THE BANNER MINE.—The repairs and improvements recently made in the Banner mill and hoisting works are completed, and the mine is yielding excellent quartz. The thirty stamp will is Continually at work, and plenty of Pick is always on hand, »YESTERDAY was so sultry that if took taye or. three able bodied men to draw a fall breath. “A good shower would have a refreshing effect upon the atmosphere and all who breathe it. a Growine REPuTATION.—If the entire correspondence from South America, Central America and the West [adies, received by Messrs. Hostetter & Smith, during the last twelve months, were published gat length, it would probably be considered one of the most extraordinary collections of approbatory testimony on record. The letters, written in every variety of style, and emanating from individuals of almost every class, are, nevertheless, all of the same tenor. Physicians, priests, merchants, planters, military officers, artisans, lawyers, &c., tell one story, admitting, without reserve or qualification, that the tonics heretofore in use. in thoée regions have been generally and justly superceded by HOSTK'ITER’S BITTERS. i : The confidence manifested by the people of these countries might be fairly called enthusiastic. Yet these are not the only tokens of the growing popuHOSTETTER’S STOMACH BITTERS. The foreign . orders for the article from Europe, Australia, New Zealand, China, Japan, East Indies, Cape of Good Hope, Sandwich Islands, &., have been heavier than at any former period. A8 an autidote to malaria, astomachic i and general “inviyorant they all testify to its remarkable efficacy. Agents for Pacific coast, HOSTETTEK, SMITH & CO., wholesale-diug— gists, San Francisco.
